Former Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson plans to sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers, sources told NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
The 35-year-old will ink a one-year, $1.2-million deal, per Rapoport. The Broncos still owe Wilson nearly $38 million after terminating his contract.
Wilson joins former first-round pick Kenny Pickett on the Steelers’ depth chart. Pickett lost his starting role last season and became the third option behind Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph. Trubisky was released last month and Rudolph is a pending free agent.
